Billy the Kid playing croquet?

Well there goes THAT image and legend!

What’s next? Wild Bill Hickok dancing around a maypole?

And exactly WHO is willing to pay $5 million for a photo of Billy the Kid?

Sounds like a very over-zealous bit of PR and propaganda on behalf of the auctioneer

Envy is terrible.

I have enough for ten people right now.

Think i’ll go take it out on fiance and cat.

Nothing physical, just bossing around.

Anything could be worth $5 million, a pencil could be worth $5 million, all you need to do is find someone willing to pay that. Easy!

I have a snapshot of President Wilson on board a ship coming home from the Versailles Peace Conference in 1919. My fathers uncle took the photo. He was in the presidential honor guard and came back to the USA on the same ship. I wonder if it is worth anything.

How is a Subway ride a measure of wealth/value? I’d pay to not take one. Besides one can always follow the lead of the locals and jump the ‘stile.

Imagine how valuable it would be if it was a selfie he took with Pat Garrett?

I have a warrant for the arrest of a murderer (no one famous) with Pat Garrett’s signature on it (he couldn’t find the suspect). Sometimes I think of selling it.

I guess his failure at croquet led him to his life of crime.
Maybe they should’ve done like today and given trophies for last place.
